Abstract

Reproducibility in Economics: Open Q&A with the American Economic Association’s Data Editor

Are you a researcher in the midst of preparing a replication package and are unsure about something? Are you a student wondering how complicated putting together a reproducible thesis may be? Are you unsure if the data you are using can be used in a replication package? Bring your coffee or tea, drop-in and ask Lars Vilhuber questions! Lars has been the AEA Data Editor for the past 6 years. He will start with a short 15 minute overview of the current standards, and try to answer all of your questions!

Local organizer: Ben Olken
